Greek debt crisis: ‘People can’t see any light at the end of any tunnel’

The Greek government says the country has turned a corner, but that is not the experience of people on the ground

"The worst is clearly behind us." Panaghiota Mourtidou pondered the words with a gravity unusual for the jovial volunteer. Even now, several days after the Greek prime minister, Alexis Tsipras, saw fit to use the phrase, she still feels somewhat bewildered. "Politicians clearly have no idea of the reality on the ground," she said. "If they did, they wouldn’t make such pronouncements because, really, it couldn’t be worse."

Tsipras is just like every politician that has ever polluted the air with their pronouncements.
